Sumptuously printed Erio Piccagliani photograph of the stage and screen star in conversation with La Scala's principal scenographer and costume designer. The pair are shown seated on chairs in the middle of La Scala's main stage, the box seats of the house looming behind them, likely in preparation for the 1953–54 production of Giovanna d'Arco al rogo. A later matte print on double weight paper, copyright sticker to verso. Together with La Scala Shop folder. Very fine. 7 x 7.5 inches; 17.8 x 19 cm.
Giovanna d'Arco al rogo (Joan of Arc at the Stake), Arthur Honegger's dramatic oratorio, was turned into a 1954 film by Bergman's second husband, the Italian director Roberto Rossellini. The movie, filmed during a live performance at the San Carlo Theatre in Naples, received its world premiere at La Scala.
